GFNS quoted the Spanish coach about the important player in the team’s defense.
Manchester City head coach Pep Guardiola’s latest comments will certainly attract the attention of all Real Madrid fans.
The Spanish strategist provided an update on the health condition of defender Kyle Walker.
Walker was forced to sit out in the middle of last week, when Man City struggled to create a 3-3 score in the first leg of the Champions League quarter-finals against Real.
The England international was included in the Citizens’ Premier League squad to face Luton Town on Saturday, but failed to come off the bench for the entire 90 minutes.
Before Carlo Ancelotti’s reception of Los Blancos, it is not surprising that today Pep Guardiola was asked by the press about Walker’s condition.
And the former Barcelona strategist went on to reveal that, although the 33-year-old “feels much better”, he is still undecided on whether to include him in the match against Real Madrid.
Guardiola is trying not to let Walker miss the final weeks of the season:
“Kyle Walker feels much better, maybe he can play for a few minutes against Real Madrid because it is an important match. But I don’t want to lose him for too long. We will decide in the coming days.”
